The Cullens Inspired Look and some reviews about Breaking Dawn Part 1



I'm not a Twihard and to tell you honestly I used to think it sucks.
While my friends were busy talking and swooning about Edward Cullen,
 I was too busy googling all day and listening to my beloved Korean pop stars.
I didn't get into the hype easily coz first of all, I don't read books,
and when I saw the movie, I didn't like it.
 It looks so low quality and experimental.

The Twilight movie itself,
which is first directed by Catherine Hardwicke,
is obviously low budget, more of like an indie film. 
The wardrobes were not stylish, makeup sucks (not blended well)
and it's more of like HAPPY FOUNDATION day to the Cullens.

It's really sad coz when I tried to read the book
I realized that it's really awesome but the movie just killed it.
When they changed the director of New Moon to Bill Condon,
the movie started to look better.
For the movie New Moon,
of course the story from the first movie Twilight's better,
but for the effects, makeups and styling I give props to New Moon.


I started to like the saga after watching Eclipse.
The effects and casts were amazing.


It's Boo Boo Stewart's first appearance too!
He plays as Seth Clearwater.


If some of you don't know,
he is of Japanese,
Chinese and Korean descent
from his mother’s side,
and Russian, Scottish and Native American
from his father's side.


KORRREEAAAN Blooood..

Breaking Dawn Part 1 hands down is such a good movie.
Most of the scenes are exactly what I pictured and imagined,
especially Island Esme and swimming at the moonlight scene.


Also, it's the only book that I read from cover to cover.
I read a few pages from Twilight and maybe two pages from New Moon.
The movie itself is really good.
The story is really grown up,
and of course it's the wedding scene
that drove every girls and women frenzy!!
That's the only reason why I'm so excited to see it too.


Every woman's dream is to get married,
and have a spectacular wedding.
First few seconds of the movie is like this.

What are my expectations from the wedding scene?
Kinda like the wedding that I wanted for myself.
A simple but dark, meadow or forest wedding.
Crimson colored roses are everywhere.


 In the movie there are two wedding scenes.
One is a nightmare and one is the real thing.

I prefer the nightmare.
That's the hardcore vampire wedding that I was really expecting.


 Also, I don't like Bella Swan's hair on the real wedding scene.



and doesn't she looked
too haggard and sleepless?
According to the book she looks really pretty
and not even a single hair is out of place.
Hell yeah in the movie her hair's a mess.
The movie is really moving.
You'll really appreciate the sanctity of marriage,
and how important to marry the right person.
It will make you feel how important it is to love and be loved,
and the nerve wracking feeling of your first night together.
yeah he broke the bed.

So people, please marry the right person.
That fantastic whirlwhind feeling is rare.
My favorite soundtrack called
"Flightless Bird / Iron and Wine"
also played when they were exhanging vows
 and it gave me goosebumps. 



Bella's gown looks simple in front,
but it screams
party at the back..

Wedding Dress from Carolina Herrera

 The birthing scene is really scary.
When Bella turned into a bony creature
it was scary as shit!!!!
She even broke her spine!
I knew it will happen but not hardcore!
It's really freaky!!
She didn't even close her eyes.. oh lordy..




To feel the vampire vibes going on as it is expected
that Bella Swan will open her eyes like an avatar and
will turn into a vampire,


I tried to do a Cullen Inspired look before seeing the movie.


Of course I need to see the movie with my boyfriend, and I invited my cousins as well.
We really did enjoy the last full show at the nearest mall. Too bad everyone's busy, we could've seen it in a better mall.

I really love the makeups used on her!!!
Still trying my best to figure out
which eyeshadow and lippie shades
will turn out to be like this.

According to the movie Vampires Suck,
it's now the era of vampires.




  
Everything dark, gothic, pale, bloody and freaky are in.
Werevolves, crimes, witches, that's the trend nowadays.



I personally like this concept,
since black is my favorite color of all time.
I remember back in the day
when I used to match
my black eyeshadow
with my plum lipstick.



If there's one vampire series that I particularly like,
it's Vampire Diaries.
Ian Somerhalder is one hot Vampire.
In my honest opinion,
Vampire Diaries is more mature.
Twilight's more on teen romance.
I'm not a teenager anymore so
I prefer mature storylines.


I just hope Harry Potter fans should
stop feeling bitter
about Twihards especially on Tumblr.
Both movies and books were good.

Actually,
Harry Potter is very much appreciated by elementary students
and Twilight Saga are for highschool students.

Both were good but I think bashing online must stop.



Too bad we have to wait for a year for the second part.
I already knew what will happend for part 2.
Since the wedding and honeymoon's over
I'm not excited anymore.


Trivia: The baby used in the movie is Charlie Swan's real son.
Yup, it's a baby boy ^_^

2ne1 Minzy Can't Nobody MV Inspired Look


I already did a post about this look
but I think I didn't make any tutorials
or even posted makeup details.
It was from my previous blog that I deleted
coz I think the blogger name that I used to have
sounds really cheesy. haha.^^
Also, I've been suffering from a bad cold and cough
that I even lost my voice
and I didn't teach for two days.
 I needed to cover my runny, swelling nose. LOL


I have here a few pieces of the skull bandana that Minzy used.
(hers are from a famous designer of course)
I mentioned before that it belongs to
my younger brother who happened to be a biker.
Originally, bikers wear it for their rides.

my bro

Catching a flu these days is really terrible!
I've been suffering for a week and my nose
is really stuffy and swollen.
I really don't feel well that even
my under eyes are even dark and sunken.

Going back to Minzy's look,
the main focus for this makeup look is only her eyes.
It's simple and it won't take much time
coz the eyeshadows weren't much complicated,
except if you want to use some falsies.



Of course, coz I'm covering half of my face. ~^^
I won't show you how bad my nose looks.


I love 2ne1's music, style & makeup.
They may not be the prettiest girl group
in South Korea, but these fearsome foursome
is the fiercest of all fierce.


Minzy's clothes btw, is made by the infamous designer Jeremy Scott


 Minzy's eyes were really smokey.
False eyelashes, heavy eyeliners
and black eyeshadows were used.

Makeups Used:

Face:
Revlon Colorstay Foundation in 180 Sand Beige
Revlon Colorstay Foundation in 200 Nude
Revlon Age Defying Powder Foundation in Natural
Sugar Skull Cosmetics 15 Concealer Palette


Eyes:
Elf Eyelid and eyeliner Primer
Nyx Smokey Look Kit
(colors used: Silver and Black)
Christian Dior Eyeliner in Noir
Christian Dior Diorshow Mascara
Avon Extralast Liquid Eyeliner


For the whole face,
Minzy was wearing a pink colored lippie
with some gold flecks on it.
I'm recommending Avon 24k Moisture Rich lipstick in 24k pink.



Now I'm brave & I'll show you my
whole face shot and lippie sans the gold flecks

Bah! this cold is killing me! I really want to recover soon but
the runny, clogged nose keeps coming back.
It's been a week and I'm not taking any medicines.
Am I a bad nurse? ^_^


This MV has gotta be my fave among 2ne1's MVs.
It's ecstatic, the makeups are freaking osum.
